$100-$10,000 challenge - first 6k hand graph

So I know such challenges have been a bit over-done but I wanted to give myself something to work towards and sharing my journey here to help me stay accountable. Also I am streaming it on Twitch at Evolved_H.
Bit about me: I've had some minor success at micro/mid stakes tournaments (PSN: Hozzam) but 6 months ago I fell out of love with poker. I took 6 months off and now I'm back, grinding up starting at 5NLZ and seeing where that takes me.
I'll upload my graph every 10k hands going forwards - but to get the ball rolling here are my first 7k (ish) hands at zoom.
I'll update you guys again at 20k hands, until then GL guys

So a little update that I would have done at 20k hands but I've reached first milestone of $100 profit. which means I'll take 2 shots at 10NL zoom. If I lose 2 BI's I'll move back to 5NL zoom.
Still a small sample but here is my graph so far.
What I've learnt and my approach so far
- Categorise your opponents using info you can (HUD helps) but OVERFOLD in general
- Attack weak ranges and but do not play fancy
- I need to improve in 200+bb effective spots
- At several points I tried adding 4 tables and in each I lost 3+ BI's, sticking to 2 tables really stabilised my win rate.
- I work full time and usually play an hour or so each evening.
